Fragments of fossilised dinosaur brain found for the first time

A brown bit of rock picked up in the UK by a professional fossil hunter a decade ago is the first piece of fossilised dinosaur brain tissue ever to be found, scientists have confirmed.

They said the roughly 133-million-year-old tissue comes from a species of dinosaur known as Iguanodon, and comes from a brain that is similar in structure, although larger, to that of modern-day crocodiles and birds.

Nice work. Keep plugging away at something for long enough (people have been collecting dinosaur bones since before 1841) and some extremely rare find will eventually occur.
